The UK already has a world leading research base in neurotechnology. Innovate UK Business Connect is helping transfer knowledge from academia to this fast-growing industry sector and provides a vital meeting place between clinicians and technologists. The aims of our activity is to grow the neurotechnology community and accelerate innovation through cross-sector collaborations.
Sign up to Innovate UK Business Connect’s mailing list or or check the opportunities section below for regular updates, thought leadership papers and networking opportunities.
Since our neurotechnology activity began in 2020, we have developed a a Neurotechnology landscape map to highlight the universities, research organisations, companies, charities and investors that are working in this area, and published the two reports below covering the UK opportunity for neurotechnology.

Neurotechnology Landscape
Neurotechnology is the application of electronics and engineering to the human nervous system and ranges from the measurement of the whole brain through technologies such as electroencephalography to the stimulation of a single nerve using bioelectronic medicines.
